Simple question and answer
Hi, I am stuck with pretty basic sounding problem. I want to make question answer game. So when I ask for example 8x8 I would like to write the answer with keyboard after the question. So the player has to press 6 and 4 and numbers would appear on the screen. If a player writes something else the answer is incorrect. I know how to make multiple choice quiz game, but I would like to use writing as answering method. I would really appreciate help on this topic.
Thanks!

An InputField can be used to type answers. To get a better idea to do this:
Create 2 UI elements: Text and InputField.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class MathGuiTest : MonoBehaviour {
public Text label;
public InputField input;
private float multiplicand, multiplier, product;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
GenerateNewQuestion();
input.Select(); //focus cursor to input field
}
void GenerateNewQuestion() {
multiplicand = Mathf.Round(Random.Range(0f, 10f));
multiplier = Mathf.Round(Random.Range(0f, 10f));
product = multiplicand * multiplier;
label.text = multiplicand + " * " + multiplier + " = ";
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Return)) //enter key
{
CheckAnswer();
}
}
void CheckAnswer()
{
float userAnswer;
// if input is valid (is a number)
if (float.TryParse(input.text, out userAnswer))
{
// if the two values are the same
if (Mathf.Approximately(userAnswer, product))
{
Debug.Log("Correct");
GenerateNewQuestion();
input.text = "";
}
else
{
Debug.Log("Incorrect");
}
}
else
{
//input text is invalid, (e.g. text is blank or is not a number)
input.text = "";
}
}
}
Thanks!
I was looking for InputField.
